Here's the finished pencils for a new Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy commission. It's 11x17 on bristol board, drawn in 4h and 2h pencil. If you'd like to check out the step by step process of how I drew this, please drop by my commission blog at www.thecommissionwindow.blogspot.com.This commission is now heading over to my inker, Ray Snyder, so I'll be posting an inked version as soon as he finishes it. I can't wait to see how it comes out. Ray will also be posting his inking process and progress on the commission blog, if you'd like a chance to look over his shoulder.

Still feeling sick, and can't shake the cough. Gonna hit the hay early tonight and try for a fresh start tomorrow. Will definitely have work going on Harley & Ivy tomorrow, but tonight, sleep.
Hope everyone is doing well and staying well.
See ya tomorrow.

My newest in a series of Wonder Woman Bondage homage commissions. I used
designs for Wonder Woman and The Cheetah from my work on the
unpublished Wonder Woman book I did a few years back. This one is an
homage to Betty Page's bondage photos with Irving Klaw. If you'd like to
see my process in drawing this commission, please drop by my commission
blog at www.thecommissionwindow.blogspot.com. Ray Snyder will be inking
this piece in the next few weeks, and he'll be posting his process on
the blog as well.11x17 on bristol board. Drawn in 4h pencil.
